Physics · Ray Optics
An object is placed at the centre of curvature of a concave mirror, forming a real image at the centre of curvature. If the object is moved slightly closer to the focal point, such that it remains between the centre of curvature and the focus, which of the following will correctly describe the change in the image?
- 1The image will move closer to the focus, will become virtual, and will be larger than the object.
- 2The image will move beyond the centre of curvature, will remain real, and will be larger than the object.✓
- 3The image will move closer to the mirror, will become virtual, and will be smaller than the object.
- 4The image will move closer to the focus, will remain real, and will be smaller than the object.
Correct answer
The image will move beyond the centre of curvature, will remain real, and will be larger than the object.
